The India trio of Bheigyabati Chanu, Jhano Hansdah and Gagandeep won bronze in the women's compound archery event beating Malaysia 223-219 in the third place play-off tie at the Commonwealth Games on Thursday.
In a cricket crazy nation as India, where every rich man is gladly pouring out all his heart and money to invest big time in the game, it was always somewhat difficult to throw open the nation gates to host a major world event like 'Common Wealth Games'.
And although, such huge events can give a tremendous boost to the nation's tourism and can pull in the huge international brands to the national market, it is very critical to realize the efforts and sincerity needed to pull off such a major international event.
The Indian officials, however, have failed to realize not only the planning efforts but also the consequences that the nation can suffer in case of below average preparations. The yet unanswered vigorously growing questions about the improper grooming of the CWG, only goes on to highlight the already embarrassing preparation scenario. The carelessness and sheer irresponsible behavior shown by the Indian CWG officials, is also boiling the blood of many locals awaiting the event.
